I am thrilled that Disney created a  live-action adaptation of Aladdin, and it has now landed in homes on Digital, Movies Anywhere and 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and DVD! Starring Will SmithNaomi Scott and Mena Massoud, the release includes all new bonus features, such as deleted scenes, a blooper reel and more!

The release of the live-action adventure coincides with the addition of the original animated classic to the highly celebrated Walt Disney Signature Collection, granting Aladdin fans everywhere the opportunity to own both magical movies. In 4K for the first time, the new release features all new bonus content, including alternate endings! We celebrated this release with some JAMS! FIG Jams that is! Special thanks to Disney for this fun little package. 😉 We made some tasty Chicken and Fig Jam Sandwiches with them. They were delicious.

If you’d like to make a sweet treat to wash that down with, try making these Fig jam Cookies! YUM!
